Synopsis: Explore an ambiguous world where absolute guilt and innocence are unclear. Lisa is a neglected and abused teenager whose older, ex-con husband Clint manipulates her so far into a world of sex and violence that it becomes as common to her as TV dinners. Behind them lies a trail of victims whose blood ends up on her hands only. But who is to blame?
